Table of contents

That night, at 1
am, I found Rajah and Bertrum in the pavilion. It has been quite a long
time since I’ve been here by myself at these wee hours! And quickly
afterwards Fael joined us as well.

Rajah Yalin: hi Pema
Pema Pera: Hi there, Rajah and Bert!
Bertrum Quan: Hi Pema
Pema Pera: How are you both doing?
Pema Pera: Hi Fael!
Rajah Yalin: hi Fael
Fael Illyar: Hi Pema, Bert, Rajah :)
Bertrum Quan: Hi Fael!
Rajah Yalin: just good, usually I am at the nakamal at this time but today I’ve decided to bring the nakamal home hehe
Bertrum Quan: Fine thanks!
Faenik: indeed?
Pema Pera: you mean all the people in the nakamal?
Rajah Yalin: well I have some friends over and am making kava haha
Rajah Yalin: they are interested in SL, they think this is very strange
Pema Pera: :)
Rajah Yalin: yep :)
Fael Illyar: strange?
Rajah Yalin: yes they are watching this and saying this is very weird
Rajah Yalin: Ken says he needs an internet
Fael Illyar always feels like making a correction. It’s a _connection_ to the internet not the internet that you get.
Rajah Yalin: thanks for that
Fael Illyar: I wonder though if it’s useful to make that correction.
Faenik: could be
Rajah Yalin: if you say it, it must be

I bring up the many lively blogs that are being written by various guardians.

Pema Pera: Did you all have a chance to look at the blogs of Storm, Adams, Sky and Dakini the last few days?
Faenik: indeed?
Pema Pera: A lot being written there, very inspiring
Fael Illyar: the internet compared to a connection to the internet…
it’s a bit like saying you have the moon when you get a telescope that
allows you to look at it :)
Pema Pera: :)
Rajah Yalin: I havent seen them
Pema Pera: but in language we always do that: a “comfortable chair”
doesn’t mean that the chair is comfortable — you are when you use it
Pema Pera: Hi Sarbo!
Fael Illyar: I should catch up, I hardly get the chance to participate in meetings this week.
Pema Pera: Come join us
Sarbo Halasy: hi all
Fael Illyar: Hello Sarbo
Rajah Yalin: and Fael I don’t know what to tell you, we may not talk correct, just how we talk
Rajah Yalin: actually I talk the most correct of anyone I kno in this country
Rajah Yalin: hi Sarbo

Sarbo drops by, triggering a brief PaB overview.

Pema Pera: Sarbo, have you been here before?
Sarbo Halasy: no, this is my first time sitting here
Pema Pera: we have meetings here four times a day
Sarbo Halasy: wow, Pema, powerful name!
Pema Pera: we talk about a little exploration we are doing — thank you :)
Pema Pera: in RL, every 15 minutes we stop for 9 seconds what we are doing
Sarbo Halasy: i do a little exploring myself
Pema Pera: to take a little meditation-like break
Pema Pera: http://playasbeing.wordpress.com/ is our web site
Pema Pera: and then we talk about our experiences here
Pema Pera: and we also just chat
Sarbo Halasy: okay, i am mostly a stupid sitter … i take the cushion
Pema Pera: Also, at that blog site, we record some of our conversations
— do you mind if we include our current conversation there?
Sarbo Halasy: np
Pema Pera wondering what a stupid sitter could be :-)
Pema Pera: thanks!
Pema Pera often feels pretty stupid himself
Faenik: why not?
Pema Pera: exactly, Faenik
Fael Illyar: :)

A brief conversation about rebaking

Rajah Yalin: guess its just me but fael and sarbo look like they need rebaked
Pema Pera: yes, me too
Pema Pera: white with letters
Sarbo Halasy: shit, i need rebaked?
Fael Illyar: just press ctrl-alt-R
Sarbo Halasy: thx, i forgot the sequence
Fael Illyar: did it help?
Sarbo Halasy: i’m fine . . do u see okay>?
Pema Pera: I don’t see any improvement
Rajah Yalin: Sarbo still looks it to me but Fael is okay
Pema Pera: now Fael appears finally
Fael Illyar: I see everyone but Sarbo ok.
Sarbo Halasy: relog time
Pema Pera: ah!
Sarbo Halasy: do i look human now?
Pema Pera: yes, but with letters on white background, as before. Try ctrl-alt-R
Fael Illyar: it should fix it, it’ll just take some time
Rajah Yalin: a missing item human
Sarbo Halasy: my objects are all scatterd about
Rajah Yalin: just stepped outside to take a drink of kava
Fael Illyar: I see your face and hair, sarbo, the rest of you is grey.
Sarbo Halasy: mebbe it will just take time, i am hopeful
Rajah Yalin: yep it’ll come around
Sarbo Halasy: i see you all clearly
Faenik: why not?

And time to get more sleep.

Pema Pera: It is 1:30 am SLT now, and where I am it is indeed 1:30 am locally, so I think I’ll sign off and get some sleep.
Pema Pera: Good seeing you all!
Fael Illyar: Good night Pema :)
Sarbo Halasy: sleep well pema
Rajah Yalin: take care Pema
Rajah Yalin: Namaste
Pema Pera: bfn
Bertrum Quan: Night, Pema.
